Art of convincing people

Everyone in the world tries to convince others. Once you practice this art and if you are good at this you can really make the world go around you.
I will be adding more examples to this , but I read the following in the Jewel of Medina.

Story # 1

Mohamed is already married 5 times and now he sets his eye to marry the 5th wife. Her name is Umm Salama. Umm Salama was already married and has been widowed, she has kids from her earlier marriage, she is very much in love with her husband. But women in that generation if there is noone to take care of, have either one of the two options begging or Prostituition.
Mohamed wanted to marry her and she refused two of her suitors also, literally he begged her to marry (it seems!) .
So finally she had the following questions and the answers from him
Q : I am set in my own ways and my years are too advanced for me to change them.
A : I am more advanced in years than you and I know your thinking and will make sure that you take the lead.

Q : I am hesitant to move my children to a home which may not love as his father
A : I have know you and your kids right from the time they were bor, so obviously I will love them as you do

Q: I am averse to Sharing my husband with other women and I am Jealous the man I marry will even look at other women ?

(This is the best answer ) : As for your Jealousy , I would ask god to remove it from you.

Very covincing answers, but most of his marriages ( 13 of them ) all are marriage of convieneince rather than for love.

More short stories will be added in the future.
